Toni Childs Death Lyrics

Death

oh mother, can you hear me
can you hear me now
did you die alone and afraid
that no one knew the pain
that still remained
inside your breast this night
inside this holy place
a place into the void

can you hear
hear me now as I call
I'm calling you here
I can't explain
explosions
and the wound in my heart today
I'm killing myself with drink
I'm killing myself to think
I didn't tell you I cared

can you hear
I needed to say
to let you know
I felt your pain

I'm calling your name to let you know
that I'm sorry for the shame
disguised as blame
and the hurt and pain
and the love I couldn't say
that I want to say now

oh peace, let there be peace

it's beautiful here
there is safety in my ears
it's wonderful to be with you

I'm breathing in life
I'm breathing in her
I'm breathing in the darkness
of what it is to live
It's beautiful here

I'm breathing in life
I'm breathing in blood
I'm breathing in the liquid
of life and holy joy
It's beautiful here

there is safety in my ears
It's wonderful to be here with you
I'm feeling safe inside you
and I'm feeling like life would inside of you
the blood and the river are the same
we are one with you here the same

mother, can you tell me please
am I safe
I decide for the world
and I decide to be born
I decide for the world
and I decide to be born
what will I think of this world?
what will I do in this world?
will I be afraid of this world?
